Description

General description

SRγ (sex determining region γ) (SOX) are HMG box containing transcription factors that bind to the minor groove of DNA. Sox proteins family members regulate a variety of aspects of development. SRγ (sex determining region γ)-box 4 (SOX4, EVI16, SRγ) is required for differentiation and proliferation in many tissues, including various cancers. Sox4 acts in part by stabilizing β-catenin. Sox4 is required for lymphocyte development. It is an early factor in B-cell differentiation.

SRY (sex determining region Y) (SOX) are high-mobility-group (HMG) box containing transcription factors, that binds to the minor groove of DNA. SRY box 4 (SOX4) is a member of the SOX family of transcription factors. It is expressed majorly in normal and neoplastic gut tissues. SOX4 gene is located on human chromosome 6p22.3.

Specificity

Anti-SOX4 polyclonal antibody reacts with bovine, canine, human, mouse, rat, zebrafish, and chicken SRγ (sex determining region γ)-box 4 proteins.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human SOX4

Application

Anti-SOX4 polyclonal antibody is used to tag SRγ (sex determining region γ)-box 4 for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of SRγ (sex determining region γ)-box 4 in cell differentiation and proliferation, such as B-cell differentitation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SRY box 4 (SOX4) is required for differentiation and proliferation in many tissues, including various cancers. It stabilizes β-catenin. Sox4 is essential for lymphocyte development. It acts as an early factor in B-cell differentiation. SOX4 is involved in the regulation of embryonic development and the determination of cell fate. It acts as a transcriptional regulator after forming syndecan binding protein (syntenin), a protein complex. SOX4 modulates the apoptosis pathway, which leads to cell death and tumorigenesis. It regulates downstream effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and PTH-related protein (PTHrP) in bone development.
